in this paper, we introduce the notion of the radical of a $pmv$-algebra $a$ and we charactrize radical $a$ via elements of $a$. also, we introduce the notion of the radical of a $cdot$-ideal in $pmv$-algebras. several characterizations of this radical is given. we define the notion of a semimaximal $cdot$-ideal in a $pmv$-algebra. finally we show that $a/i$ has no nilpotent elemen...
